My husband was skeptical about Gillespie Approach–Craniosacral Fascial Therapy, but my mommy gut and background as a pediatric nurse told me that something just wasn’t right. I was exhausted and felt defeated and was willing to try anything to have a calmer, happier baby.
My baby was fussy baby and very difficult to console. He would cry being put down, cry being strolled, and cry during the whole car ride. He was only content being held in my arms, and I couldn’t be sitting holding him he needed to have that bouncing movement. The pediatricians said it was all reflux related, so I searched the internet for solutions for reflux. No matter what we tried, our baby was still fussy and miserable.
I sought the help of a lactation consultant, thinking that maybe he was fussy because he wasn’t getting enough milk. That home visit was a blessing in disguise, she recommended Dr. Gillespie. After finding his website and reading so many wonderful reviews, I convinced my husband that we should make an appointment. After our first visit, we were AMAZED!!! My son slept the whole car ride home (this would never happen), and, when we arrived home, he woke up smiling (this also would never happen). With each visit, we saw more and more improvement.
My son went from a fussy baby to a happy baby, and we would remark to one another that what we were witnessing at each visit was magic. If you are on the fence about making an appointment, do it. You won’t regret it.
